Classes

There are four archetypes, i.e. classes, to choose from for your character. These are warrior, priest, witch, and pariah.

The warrior and the witch are the representatives of the wilderness, of the old ways, of freedom, and of the darker side of the shadow, whereas the priest and the pariah are the representatives of civilization, of enclosed spaces, of light and of order.

Each class starts the game with certain advantages over the others.
